Every bedroom that the team had was the same. The choice to further decorate it was up to them. Each room, came with a king sized bed, with a small nightstand table on the left side.
The bedrooms were lighted with five, drum shade lights hanging from the walls and ceiling were both painted white, and devoid of any features, or designs.
On the wall opposite of the bed, every bedroom had a dresser, with four shelves to it. This dresser was next to a closet with dark brown, wooden doors, and black handles.
Then on the left from the door entrance, into the room they all received a wooden desk, for which to use in case of studying, or just a place to put things.
Emerald had been studying quite hard, all night, his torso was draped over the desk, as he had fallen asleep. There was a lot he was able to learn, and then more that was left unanswered.
The sound of the alarm clock, had failed to awaken Emerald. A hard knock on his door however sufficed. "Ah..wha? Mm ah, hang on a minuet."
Emerald said in response to the knocking, as he stood up and stretched. Walking over, he answered the door, and found Kate there.
"I noticed you were late to breakfast, and so I decided to get you." She said greeting him with a warm smile.
"Ah, right, breakfast, the most important meal of the day, right, thanks." He said to her, as he wiped the sleep from his eyes.
"Well that and there's something on the news, we're all finding it interesting." She told him.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAA
As for their breakfast, the team had a large selection of food. There were some members who ate whatever they felt like, while others went for more of a balanced breakfast.
Emerald himself was more interested in finding out what the news had on. As a result, he made due with a couple of bagels, and yogurt.
On the far right end of the couch, Kate, and Morgan were chatting with each other. They both had bowls of cereal that they were eating.
Tay was either not eating, or had finished already, but he was laying upside down on the couch. Emerald was not sure how his hat stayed one.
Alicia was sitting by M, she was eating toast, while M just had a glass of milk.
"Glad to see you're up, we'll talk in a bit, but for now, watch this." Thomas said to Emerald, who nodded and took a seat on the large couch.
The news had a story on a very gruesome murder, that had occurred. Normally this would not be surprising, except for the victim of the murder was Bane.
The venom pumped man had been found in an old warehouse. Bane was beaten, strangles, burned alive, skinned, had acid damage, and the killing blow was a slash across his throat.
Morgan gulped, having never seen such brutality before. "Who could do such a thing?" She asked with disgust apparent in her voice.
"Just some nutbag, or someone who had a grudge against him." Tay said to her.
"So, Emerald what did you find out?" Thomas asked him, in reference to his research.
"Oh yeah, I found out that our Milo guy is Achilles Milo, he was a genius, chemist." Emerald said to the group.
"Was?" Thomas asked, taking note of that word. "Yeah, from what I gathered, he just dropped off the Earth, roughly five months ago." He replied to Thomas, who nodded.
"Hmm, about the same time, as the M99 Projects. So then we have to figure out if he left on his own terms, or if someone else took him out of the picture."
Thomas then told the team about his own progress with getting in touch with the North team. "I managed to get ahold of Nightwing, he sent me records on Scarecrow, he was present in Arkham Asylum, for the majority of the days, but it seems that he had contacts on the outside, who Nightwing said he would question in order to help us. He's also going to question, Scarecrow personally." Thomas said to the team.
"Well now, Strix the cure?" Thomas asked her. Strix did not say anything, but gave a slight nod, and held up a vial of blue liquid.
"On another note, since our training was interrupted last time, I'd like for us to hit the stimulation, this time I'd like for us to go stealth training, quick takedowns, traps, that sort of thing." Thomas explained to them.
AAAAAAAAAAAAA
(I chose the OC's for the stimulation in accordance to coin flip. Except for Thomas, as team leader he has to set a good example, and go first.)
As before, Thomas was the one to go first. He did not mind which scenario was chosen, so he selected, the predator mode, and randomized it.
The computer made the choice of warehouse. The layout had two levels to it. The floor was covered, with four aisles of metal shelves. They were wide enough to walk on, and all of them were over eight feet in height, so no one would be able to peer over them.
On either side of the ground level were floor grates, that could be used. There was a hollowed out opening in the front, with a hole, behind a pillar, which was the middle of two other pillars.
There were stairs, which lead up to a walk way, it had a metal railing, and simply went around the room.
Before stepping in Thomas had one last thing to tell the team. "Eventually I want us to practice with super villains, and of course get our teamwork down. We could even spar each other some time." He said to them.
Thomas then stepped into the program, he was placed in the hole behind the pillar. As for his enemies, there were six of them, all of them armed thugs. There were four in the aisles below, and two of them patrolling in the area up top.
Two thugs the closest one's were walking towards each other, something Thomas took note of. He went to an aisle, and crouched down, as they went past each other.
The moment one of them walked by, Thomas quickly grabbed him, putting him into a sleeper hold. The man passed out after a few seconds, and Thomas immediately headed around the corner, and took out the other one.
He then decided to set up a trap, Thomas used his pyrokinesis to light a small fire, that would be used to attract attention. He went over into the floor grates, and headed toward the south end of the warehouse.
As he did so, Thomas could hear the others mentioning about smelling smoke, as they came to check out what was going on.
One of the patrol members up top had stayed there, while the other one had come down, to check out the smoke with the others.
"Shit, there's a man down!" One of them yelled out. Thomas took their confusion, to jump up on a shelf, and then back flip to the railing, where he would be able to take down the guard up there.
Thomas took his gun, and then threw it into an aisle to get the attention of the others. He then leapt on top of a shelf, and moved quietly until he was overhead the other three.
Thomas held his bat, horizontally in both hands. He jumped down, knocking down all three of them, and then with three consecutive head punches, he took them all out.
AAAAAAAAAAAAA
The next person to enter the stimulation was Morgan. The computer once again randomized the choice. The one Morgan received, was a house.
It was nothing fancy, just an ordinary, house with three levels to it.
The basement level, had an old shower, with large, yellow curtain, and two other rooms to it. One of which was filled with old junk.
The middle level, had a living room, which was connected to a kitchen. Then it also had a hallway, that had a bathroom, and a bedroom.
The upstairs was the smallest, it had a room at one end, a bathroom in the middle, and a room at the other end.
As before there were six armed thugs, two of them per level. Morgan however did not start out in the house. She started out in a breezeway, next to a freezer, that was under a window.
Morgan climbed onto the freezer, and then opened the window, where she crawled through into the bathroom of the middle level.
Morgan decided to use a little water to scope things out. She created orbs of water, small ones, like a field of raindrops, which she then sent out in order to scope out the area.
As for the level she was in, one thug was down in the kitchen, the other however was in the room, right next to her.
Morgan waited behind the bathroom door, as she knew the man was turning, and about to leave the room. As he was doing so, she made a puddle by the doorway.
He stepped out, his boots hitting the water. "Heh, the toilet must of over flown or something, weird." The man said, not realizing the water seeping up behind him.
Morgan made the water, engulf the man, so that he would not struggle, and attract attention, and used it to take him out. She then took his gun, and moved down the hallway, the other thug was now in the living room.
Morgan went behind the man, and hit him, in the back of the head, with the rifle. She grabbed onto him before he fell, so that she could lay him down gently.
Morgan decided to go for the one's in the basement next. One of them was out in the open, just standing there, presumably to keep watch.
Morgan wrapped a water bubble around his head, and took him out. She then repeated the same tactic with the one in the junk filled room.
After doing this, Morgan took a rifle, and fired it a few times, knowing the other two left would come rushing. She hid around the corner of the junk room, creating aqua spheres, filled with electrcity.
As soon as they came down the stairs, Morgan took both of them out.
AAAAAAAAAAA
Thomas was about to select a new member to go into the stimulation, however, he received a message it was from Nightwing.
"Hello, Nightwing." Thomas said to the hologram of the original boy wonder.
"Good, news I think I found out who your mad doctor was." Nightwing said to Thomas, causing the other team members to perk up, as they wanted to know.
"Alright now, during the period in question, Crane was never behind the incident at the hospital, actually he was not even aware of a Stane hospital existing. However did he relate to some of his items being taken, by a Dr. Gregory Williams, it seems that Dr. Williams was once exposed himself, along with his daughter to Crane's fear gas. The daughter killed herself, and Williams took a canister of fear gas, in a fit of madness. Ironically enough, Scarecrow was trying to kill him, and get it back on the night Batman, apprhended and took him back to Arkham, allowing, Dr. Williams to flee." Nightwing explained to all of them.
Thomas looked over at Emerald who gave a nod about what Nightwing said. "There was a Greg Williams as one of the head doctors named in the experiments."
This was a nice thing to hear for the team, as they now only needed to find this Gregory Williams.
"Thank you Nightwing." Thomas said to the other team leader. Nightwing responded with a "No problem" before signing out.
"Alright, let's focus on finding Williams, or at the very least we can track down any surviving doctors of the massacre, of people related to the guy
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
A leather gloved, hand entered a code and a heavy door slid open. Inside the room was small and padded.
"Apologies, Dr. Williams, I am afraid it's time for you to go." Hugo Strange said to the man in a straight jacket.
Whatever was left of Greg Williams had been destroyed by Hugo Strange. The professor, had been the one to drug him, to plant post hypnotic suggesstions in his mind.
He was well aware that for some time, other men would be blamed for what had occured at Stand Hospital.
This however was no longer the case. Strange approached the man, who made no response, he was unable to, in his current condition.
The professor then injected a serum into Greg's neck, one that would cause him to forget everything, that had happened in the past year.
After doing this, Strange made a mental note to allow Greg to be released from the facility, if some hero then tracked him down for information, it would not be on Strange's head, as he had already deleted all files on Greg Williams.
"It's been a pleasure, Dr. WIlliams, you will wake up, in a nice bed, and you will not remember a thing."
